Well, a few new ships and a walker are being released into stores already. These are on the 2008 slate, and one of them is a “need to get” as it is clearly an Imperial ship, though it is not from the movies. This one is from the upcoming game “The Force Unleashed” an
d is called the Rogue Shadow. It looks like a pretty funky ship, but the crazy thing about it is, it comes with a Battle Damaged Darth Vader. And by the looks of things, he gets pretty battle damaged. I am very much looking forward to this game, and fortunately it is coming out on the Wii platform. Will the Wiimote handle like a proper lightsaber, or will it fall short like Red Steel? Wii will see.
The next set is a walker. This one is called an AT-AP which stands for All Terrain Attack Pod, which was shown somewhere in Episode 3 on Felucia. It comes with a retractable 3rd leg which will stablize it when firing the main cannon. This one is another "Need to get" as I have all the other walkers that Lego has made.The next set is from the upcoming cartoon series “The Clone Wars” which looks great. T
his set falls into my “wouldn’t mind having” list. It’s Anakin’s Jedi Starfighter, which is an altogether different model from Episode 2 and Episode 3 (and may even be different from the Clone Wars shorts that came out before Episode 3). It looks… interesting. What I really like about this set though is the hair that Anakin is sporting. That’s quite the mold that Lego has made. He also has very different eyes then other minifig heads have had, and think this is because it's based on a cartoon.Sorry that all the links go to amazon.de but they aren't up at amazon.com yet.
